09:45 <jmkacz> I'm trying to set a some headers in my rack response, but I don't see them show up when i curl my app.

09:46 <jmkacz> def post(req, resp): ... resp["X-Foo"] = "bar"

09:48 <jmkacz> Does rack filter what headers it returns, because I can change the content-type successfully.

09:59 <jmkacz> aha!

09:59 <jmkacz> i actually had resp["X-Foo"] = 42

10:00 <jmkacz> header values _must_ be strings for some reason

10:00 <jmkacz> why rack doesn't handle this for you, i dont know

10:55 <raggi> rakc is not rails

10:55 <raggi> it's not going to hold your hand all the way to profit

11:04 <codeswing> ppl .. I want to use rack for this simple site http://www.googletotal.com/

11:04 <codeswing> can somebody help me what kind of rack features would make this app awesome .. and more useful

11:05 <raggi> um

11:05 <raggi> not a lot

11:06 <raggi> you could use rack-cache

11:06 <codeswing> raggi: currently it's simple html page..

11:06 <raggi> codeswing: so why use rack?

11:07 <raggi> you shouldn't ever ask "how will this lib make my stuff awesome"

11:07 <codeswing> want to make use of rack

11:07 <raggi> start with requirements

11:07 <raggi> and distill what you need from those

11:07 <codeswing> might be I am missing .. something .. I am like what rack provides and how can I use it

11:07 <rutlov> Uhh, Connection timed out - connect(2). Reason: The POP server is out of Coke

11:07 <raggi> codeswing: you're missing requirements.

11:08 <codeswing> raggi: what do you mean by requirements .. at this point .. one requirement I have is that .. how to make it mose usable ...

11:08 <raggi> define usable

11:09 <codeswing> how can it forces user to become their homepage

11:09 <* raggi> walks off

11:18 <codeswing> lol... raggi walks off

11:24 <raggi> i won't help you abuse people

11:24 <raggi> and you're approaching your stuff all wrong

11:58 <codeswing> raggi: I was joking btw

11:59 <codeswing> want to learn rack more than creating such apps

11:59 <codeswing> :)

11:59 <codeswing> why some ppl don

11:59 <codeswing> 't get jokes

23:37 <ddfreyne> What’s the recommended way of letting Rack serve large files?

23:38 <ddfreyne> hm, maybe I should resort to Rack::File
